Autonomous Water Craft (AWC)

Golden Arrow Technologies delivers Autonomous Tactical Watercraft, engineered for both crewed and uncrewed operations across defence and specialist maritime environments.

Developed in collaboration with RAD Propulsion, these platforms demonstrate advanced mission autonomy, control systems integration and robust maritime capability, supporting evolving operational requirements.

Designed for Modern Tactical Use

The AWC is a lightweight, purpose-built Uncrewed Surface Vessel (USV) engineered to deliver reliable performance across a wide range of maritime operating environments - from confined waterways to offshore conditions.

Designed to reduce personnel exposure and minimise reliance on high value crewed assets, the AWC provides a cost-effective and highly adaptable solution for commercial maritime operations where traditional approaches can introduce unnecessary cost, complexity, or risk.

Built for low visibility, rapid deployment and operational flexibility, the AWC supports a broad range of mission profiles including:

• Survey & inspection
• Security & monitoring
• Logistics support
• Search & rescue (SAR)
• Casualty evacuation (CASEVAC)
• Training & capability development

Each platform is engineered to operate effectively in complex and high-demand environments.

Advanced Autonomy & Control Integration

Working alongside RAD Propulsion, we integrate cutting-edge technologies that enable:

• Autonomous navigation and mission execution

• Remote operation and control capability

• Intelligent system management and responsiveness

• Seamless transition between crewed and uncrewed modes

This hybrid capability provides flexibility, allowing operators to adapt to changing mission requirements in real time.

Customised for Mission-Specific Requirements

Engineered with a focus on reliability, ease of control and interoperability with other systems.

• Length: 3320mm
• Width: 1250mm
• Height: 1100mm
• Engine: 170HP
• Payload: 300kg
• Fuel capacity: 70L
• Dry weight: 320kg

Deployable from slipways, shorelines, or support vessels, the platform offers exceptional flexibility and accessibility across a broad spectrum of commercial maritime applications.

Our approach ensures each platform is purpose-built, not off-the-shelf.
